Forums - Sony - Board the InFamous Hype Train!!! ^^

I have put several videos of the game on the PS3 in my Gamestop to intiate the hype in my store. The music video trailer gets people's attention everytime and all the kiddies say "WOW! What game is THAT?"

I don't really agree with creating a hype train for it. :/

 

Have more faith in your sig man!!!! ^^

This game will pull a KZ2 for sure, exceed the harsh pressures of hype and the prototype haters.

 

whoa whoa, take it easy there, guy. Don't start making unrealistic expectations, or you'll get called out on it. I'm very hyped for Infamous (have been talking it up to my buddies for awhile now) but even I don't see it getting KZ2 reviews (92). IMO it will probably land around 85 or so. If you meant that it will sell as good as KZ2, again, I don't see that happening. Not only is it not a big hyped up shooter (apparently shooters are the only thing that sells nowadays...how I hate it), it has a stiff competition from a similar game in Prototype launching a couple weeks after that. Prototype will steal some sales from Infamous, I'm pretty sure about that.

I wasnt talking of sales or reviews. I was speaking more so of being better then most would want to give it credit. People were hating hard on KZ2 due to the lackluster first game. The same is happening to Infamous but it is because of Prototype having more abilities then it(as if more equals quality) and saying Infamous must be repetitive(even though the moves they have shown are probably not nearly all he actually has in the game, and they have shown a lot).

Derail the hype train!

Lol first post is hate. Why can't you just enjoy Wii sports 2 in peace lol.

 

 

lol no the first post is lulz, I just want Sly Cooper 4 from Sucker Punch, they could make it look simply stunning on the PS3.

Wii Friend Code - 5882 9717 7391 0918 (PM me if you add me), PSN - MaxwellGT2000, XBL - BlkKniteCecil, MaxwellGT2000

I'm hyped, but I won't buy it.

Maybe a really good IGN review will change my mind. I always depend on their Lasting Appeal score and comment. Also Gameplay score :P.

That's exactly why I don't want to board the hype train. I don't want to deal with the people saying "infamous will flop" or "infamous didn't get __ on metacritic! it's terrible!" I think it'll be one of the best games for me this year. I don't think everyone in the forums will actually like it, and I'm okay with that. I dunno. 

oh! also, just letting you know, the game officially went gold tonight. I'm signed up to suckerpunch's twitter. :)

 

WOW! lol. That's impressive. Anyways, I agree with you on that. People are so quick to judge a game they haven't played and claim that it's a flop because it may not have sold gang busters. Sometimes I hate that this is a sales oriented forum, everything always boils down to sales (either that or metacritic score).

the main purpose of this hype train is to get those people who dont know about the game informed. Hopefully they will like what they see, if not then they will just go elsewhere. no biggy ^^.

I saw it on Wikipedia just now. It doesn't say what the content is, but it's probably everything you mentioned (maybe not the soundtrack). I love the art.
